Love, love, loved my birthday dinner at Yves Camdeborde’s Le Comptoir. Absolutely fabulous. A bottle of champagne from the chef (which Jerry got to drink).

Dessert was the only discordant note. The chocolate ice cream with piment d’esplette (spicy!) was good but not the clementine soup it was floating in. Boo. And mango caramels to finish. Spectacular evening!
